I always thought and felt that black is a quite difficult (non) colour to integrate in a classic mens wardrobe, but have to admit that I find this outfit shown recently by Simon Crompton quite pleasant. I particularly like the very subdued, monotonal shades.

I also tried to think of other colours that could work instead of black, but, no, couldn't find a better one. It's the right one in that context.

Grabbed one of my only striped business shirts today. Seemed like a good excuse to try and do a four pattern bingo.

That’s very high level matching done very well. I don’t trust my own eye so I stick by my guideline of one solid, one stripe, and one patterned. If the stripe is narrow, the pattern must be wide and vice versa. i can substitute out the patterned or the stripe for a solid but not vice versa. The pocket square choice is done by color not solid-stripe-pattern criteria. Kinda boring but works (mostly) for me.
